I'm near a flywheel where $1 spent on tokens yields >$1 profit in algorithmic trading strategies. I'm not using LLMs to make trades, they're agentic autoresearch swarms training models and running evals in a market simulator with terabytes of data. But I'm looking for a job, the idea of raising capital has crossed my mind and I've had some conversations already. If you're looking to hire someone who knows how to do this sort of work, or invest in R&D, DM me. I could probably reshape some of this plumbing into a vertical trading platform, but I really don't want to custody user funds or expose them to risk. I could launch a crypto token or yield farm and probably print money in the short term, but I don't want to do that either. And I don't want to start a prop desk. Maybe I could turn the solutions I've found for effectively monitoring and steering these kinds of meta-autoresearch-simulation-engines into public tools some day. If I did fundraise, I just want people to underwrite me doing pure R&D for now. I'm still bottlenecked by the compute needed to train thousands of time series models, and the tokens necessary for the researcher agent systems. But again I'm not trying to build a prop desk, I just want to do research. If you're in VC interested in that DM me. I'm obviously going to keep working on this and have confidence I'll continue to be profitable. But I've been full time trading and doing this kind of stuff for the last few years. And the idea of either pledging my sword to a company, or raising funds to have more certain runway, sounds nice. You might ask, "Why are you sharing this, isn't someone going to out compete you now?" But this is already arguably the most competitive game to play. I invite anyone interested and foolish enough to try their luck.

Life is short, minimize your regrets. My brother invited me on a two week family surf vacation in Lombok Indonesia, I’m an awful surfer but went anyway Type 2 fun: off shore waves, a sinus infection, scooter chaos, hiked waterfalls, got a dog bite, and a Radical SR1 track day

The United States of America is the greatest country on earth. Happy 4th of July. 🇺🇸🦅

An under discussed element of life extension and healthmaxxing is the emotional and mental health toll of living 120-150-300 years. The slings and arrows of life leave scars on your heart, losses, regrets, mistakes made and people hurt. Fiction touches on this with immortal characters that lose everyone they love. But losing a loved one is a small fraction of the emotional hazards of life, although obviously an impactful one. Therapy and accepting things as they are can only help so much. If we get radical life extension drugs, and the ability to replace our organs with new ones grown from our own cells, we’ll probably also need radical cognitive health drugs. People will say we already have those in the form of psychedelics but I think that’s a hammer looking for a nail and what I’m talking about is categorically different. Psychedelics also have significant risks, despite what hardcore proponents often say. Part of the problem with current pharmaceutical drugs for mental health is that they’re varying degrees of effectiveness and precision. Even some of the most prescribed and effective ones are poorly understood and the exact mechanisms of action aren’t known. I’m hopeful AI assisted drug discovery , advancing simulation realism and technologies like neuralink that enable high resolution monitoring will change that. I imagine one day we’ll get the GLP1 equivalent for various types of mental health issues as well as ones that, similar to GLP1, are just generally broadly useful to everyone even if you don’t have any kind of acute diagnosed condition. Maybe the broad condition everyone will have is “I’m 145 years old and my heart is heavy”

I had Fable write some code to sandbox subagents and then it decided there were ways we could make the sandbox more secure, which triggered a self-panic and it refused to fix the code it had written in the first place It’s truly an insane situation

I'm excited to share a new generative onchain artwork, Op Codes. Each token is a visualization of the machine code that makes up a historically significant smart contract. The Dao, USDC, ArtBlocks, and Pepe pictured here 0.01E mint collection of 100 sterlingcrispin.com/opcodes.…

I was driving home from the store today and imagining life remapped to a single day. Both my parents are gone now and I've been reflecting more on mortality. It feels so unreal and intangible. It's 4:30 pm for me, I still have time left but it's finite. It all goes by so fast

People forget, but everything is just cybernetics air conditioner human riding a bicycle an ICBM an AI agent it’s all the same fundamental loop Environment -> Sensing the Environment -> Internal Goal -> Action that changes the Environment-> loop cybernetics is fundamental

I’ve been on a screen detox down from 12hrs to 30min for the last week just unplugging It’s wild how argumentative and caught up in trivial nitpicking most conversations are on here and absolutely making me reconsider my priorities

This is awesome, when they first hinted at hardware I think a lot of people assumed it would be media related and not a huge pivot, but it’s amazing to see. I imagine they’re already deep into training AI models to domain remap between this and MRI, XRays etc and do preventative diagnosis x.com/midjourney/status/2067…

The worst thing about this Fable situation is that it just created precedence for capability-thought-crimes and drew a clear line in the sand going forward Are the next round of models going to need DoW clearance before release? New OS models? This is not good for progress

when did everyone everywhere get so pessimistic about everything we live in a literal golden era. sci-fi esque intelligent machines, miracle drugs, self-driving cars, spaceflight, new monetary systems, robotics, quantum computing this shit is awesome

if anyone sees a post about the rumored Anthropic model release please tag me, I would like to see them all and the timeline has only shown me 397 of them so far
